provitus Care Services uses digital home panels in its senior living communities

The digital house board informs the residents about the most important things of the day in the shared apartment:

• Which nurses are on duty today and will take care of my needs?
• What is there to eat today?
• What events are taking place today or in the near future? Where can I meet and exchange ideas with people?
• What news are there in Riesa?
• When does the next bus leave from the nearby bus stop?
• What is and will be the weather like?

Each week there is also a loving weekly wisdom for the residents*.

In the medium term, the digital house board will make an important contribution to the safety of residents. The plan is for residents to log out with a tap of their finger on the infoboard when they leave the building and log back in just as easily when they come home. This information will ensure that the operator and security forces know exactly which residents are in the building in dangerous situations, such as a fire alarm.

Dana Bellmann, Managing Director of provitus, emphasizes the importance of digital media, especially for older people: “For us, a self-determined life also includes the confident use of digital possibilities. Corona has shown us once again how important it is to actively bring our older citizens into the digital world. Several partners support us in this, e.g. our digital home board.”
